The native Marismeño breed lives in the Doñana nature reserve, even if everyone belongs to an owner. Every June the horses are taken out to reach the enclosure of Almonte where work for the health of the animal is carried out. You can see the knights before entering the park. In the day of the event: sunrise, mules in the park carrying covered, food and drink for knights; a passage in a stream; the passage in front of the Sanctuary of El Rocio for the blessing of the horses; the rest in the pine forest; the passage in Almonte city and in the following days a marking in the enclosure

I am Italian and I live in the heart of Tuscany. My passion is photography. In my opinion, capturing some moments of our existence is a real magic! At the beginning I devoted myself more to landscapes and architecture. Afterwards to a modern still-life that revolves around geometries and colors. Then my attention was seduced by portraits. I finally dedicated myself to documentary photography. I like to tell what people do through my photography. This allows me to relate to people and have a deeper dialogue with them, and that's really great.
